How to host your own Love Island finale party

As the nights of Iain Stirling’s hilarious commentary and laugh-out-loud drama of the Love Island villa draw to a close, what better way to celebrate the finale than a Love Island-themed party with all your mates?

From setting up the perfect outdoor viewing spot to creating cocktails based on the islanders’ personalities, we’re sharing a host of ideas to turn a bang-average get-together into an all-night bash!

Our first fun twist on the typical finale party: create character-inspired drinks to enjoy while the drama unfolds. After all, who wouldn’t want to sip a lush Aperol while their favourites take the crown?

Here’s some inspiration for different cocktails that reflect the different personalities in the villa:

Set the scene for that final fire pit appearance with your own stylish fire pit for your friends to gather around!

Grab some modern outdoor furniture to make the most of the late summer sun, and even get the BBQ out to grill a feast for everyone to enjoy as Laura Whitmore finally opens the top-two envelope. Finally, throw in some outdoor cushions to make everything comfy and everyone will want to stay there for another eight weeks of fun.

Of course, you’ll need some chic cocktail glasses to accompany your drinks – and a bar cart to ensure everyone's drink is topped up. And when the sun finally sets on the final night, get the outdoor lighting up – just because their summer of fun is up doesn’t mean yours has to end there too!

Grab some beach-themed items too, like towels and water bottles. You could even go the whole hog and encourage everyone to wear their favourite beach and holiday outfits to really embrace the theme

Some more quick party ideas your guests will love:

• Flip flop garlands
• Masks of the islanders’ faces
• Posters with all the slogans from this year: ‘It is what it is; till it isn’t’ and ‘May the best heartbreaker win’ are some classic picks!
• Red flags for all the red flags you witness during the final episode!
• A winner sweepstake with a grand prize!
